We study conformal quantum mechanics by first considering the perturbative $S$-matrix in various dimensions. The model has two couplings and we study perturbatively the degree of ultraviolet divergences arising in the interplay between the…
In this contribution to the proceedings, we analyze the transition from perturbative and non- perturbative QCD embedded in the coupling constant. In the study of quark-hadron duality, we suggest that the realization of the latter is related…
The issue is the expediency of the QCD notions use in the low energy region down to the confinement scale, and, in particular, the efficacy of the QCD invariant coupling \bar{\alpha}_s(Q^2) with a minimal analytic modification in this…
Computing dynamical response functions in interacting lattice models is a long standing challenge in condensed matter physics. In view of recent results, the dc resistivity $\rho_\mathrm{dc}$ in the weak coupling regime of the Hubbard model…
We present a first attempt to experimentally extract an effective strong coupling constant that we define to be a low Q2 extension of a previous definition by S. Brodsky et al. following an initial work of G. Grunberg. Using Jefferson Lab…
The paper is devoted to application of recently devised ghost-free Analytic Perturbation Theory (APT) for analysis of some QCD observables. We start with the discussion of the main problem of the perturbative QCD -- ghost singularities and…
We obtain the conductance of a system of electrons connected to leads, within time-dependent density-functional theory, using a direct relation between the conductance and the density response function. Corrections to the non-interacting…
The frozen QCD coupling is a parameter often used as an effective fixed coupling. It is supposed to mimic both the running coupling effects and the lack of knowledge of alpha_s in the infrared region. Usually the value of the frozen…
We present for the first time a self-contained calculation of the QCD running coupling at finite temperature and quark chemical potential, alpha_s(T, mu), based on a semiclassical background field method. The hard thermal/dense loop results…
An evaluation of the effective QED coupling at the scale M_Z is presented. It employs the predictions of perturbative QCD for the cross section of electron positron annihilation into hadrons up to order \alpha_s^2, including the full quark…
Three different approaches to precisely describe the Adler function in the Euclidean regime at around $2\, \mathrm{GeVs}$ are available: dispersion relations based on the hadronic production data in $e^+e^-$ annihilation, lattice…
We review our recent works on tests of perturbative QCD, inspired by the relation between the hadronic decay of the tau lepton and the e+ e- annihilation into hadrons. First, we present a set of commensurate scale relations that probe the…
We consider quantum systems with a Hamiltonian containing a weak perturbation i.e. $\boldsymbol{H=H_0} + \boldsymbol{\lambda} \cdot \boldsymbol{\tilde{H}}$, $\boldsymbol{\lambda}= \{\lambda_1, \lambda_2,...\}$, $\boldsymbol{\tilde{H}}$ $=…
Using the OPAL detector at LEP, the running of the effective QED coupling alpha(t) is measured for space-like momentum transfer, 2 \leq -t \leq 6 GeV^2, from the angular distribution of small-angle Bhabha scattering. This is currently the…
The QCD effective charge extracted from the experimental data is used to construct the vector interaction of a Dirac relativistic model for the charmonium spectrum. The process required to fit the spectrum is discussed and the relationship…
We derive a simple and general relation between the fidelity of quantum motion, characterizing the stability of quantum dynamics with respect to arbitrary static perturbation of the unitary evolution propagator, and the integrated time…
The QCD coupling appears in the perturbative expansion of the current-current two-point (vacuum polarization) function. Any lattice calculation of vacuum polarization is plagued by several competing non-perturbative effects at small momenta…
We compute the QCD running coupling on the lattice as defined from the 3-gluon vertex. We present the results of an exploratory study at $\beta=6.0$ on a $16^4$ lattice, which show that for momenta larger than 2 \Gev, the coupling runs…
A key problem in making precise perturbative QCD predictions is the uncertainty in determining the renormalization scale $\mu$ of the running coupling $\alpha_s(\mu^2).$ The purpose of the running coupling in any gauge theory is to sum all…
We introduce the running coupling constant of QCD in the high temperature phase, $\tilde{g}^2(T)$, through a renormalization scheme where the dimensional reduction is optimal at the one-loop level. We then calculate the relevant scale…
